Sushant Singh Rajput Case LIVE Updates | The CBI has released a statement: CBI continues to investigate the death of Sh. Sushant Singh Rajput. There are certain speculative reports in media that the CBI has reached a conclusion. It may be reiterated that these reports are speculative and erroneous.
Filmmaker Sandip Ssingh, who came in the limelight after the demise of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput has filed a defamation case against a news channel and it’s editor in chief. He claims to be a close confidant of Sushant and was among the first ones to reach SSR’s house after he was found dead at his Mumbai residence on June 14. In his legal notice, Ssingh also sought an unconditional apology and a compensation of Rs 200 crore within 15 days of the notice being served.
In a separate instance, fans of late Bollywood actor were in a state of confusion after his sister Shweta Singh Kirti deleted her Twitter and Instagram accounts on Wednesday. While Shweta had temporarily deactivated her social media accounts, they were subsequently restored. Later, she offered an explanation with a statement shared on Twitter apologising to Sushant’s fans.
BJP Rajya Sabha MP Subramanian Swamy on Thursday said that news reports claiming that the CBI is closing the Sushant Singh Rajput case in the next couple of days is wrong. He also wondered why some people were in a rush to close the case.
"According my information the media reports that CBI is closing, by a final report in the Sushant SR's unnatural death FIR in the next two days, is wrong. Why are so many in Mumbai in such a huge hurry to close the case?" Swamy tweeted on his verified account.
Earlier in the day, he had shared updates about the case with a couple of tweets.
"On direction of Ministry of Health, in compliance with the letter of Chairman of the Parliament's Standing Committee, to Secretary of MHFW, Dr. Sudhir Gupta met me today to apprise me of the non-classified forensic findings of the SSR case. These will be shared in the next tweet," he had written.
"I am moving through the official process for a more thorough evaluation by the MH&FW's Medical Board of the post mortem on SSR done by Dr Cooper hospital & based on the seven shortcomings of post-mortem pointed out by AIIMS Board. This is necessary before CBI can conclude," he wrote in another tweet.
Breaking his silence, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Thursday made it clear that he would resist any moves to finish off Bollywood or shift it from Mumbai.
"Any attempts being made to finish off Bollywood or shift it elsewhere (from Mumbai) will not be tolerated and we shall oppose it," Thackeray assured at a meeting with single-screen and multiplex cinema hall owners to discuss re-starting of film theatres in the ongoing Unlockdown phases.
"Bollywood enjoys a following and popularity across the globe. In many respects, it's even at par with Hollywood. The film industry also generates huge employment for lakhs of people," Thackeray said of the film industry based in Mumbai since 107 years.
